Welcome

CTPMA is an association of independent Chevron and Texaco Marketers. The association was founded over 25 years ago as the Chevron Petroleum Marketers Association and became CTPMA in 2004 with the addition of the Texaco Brand. It is comprised of over 300 members who collectively sell more than 70% of all light oil and lubricant volumes in the United States sold through the distributor channel.

2008 Advertisers and Sponsors

Dear Fellow Marketer,

I would like to take this opportunity to wish you well in 2008, a year that will again be full of changes and challenges in the industry. It seems

we start every year with that same thought, and either fortunately or unfortunately it is true. Yet I hope this is the year that we further engage our collective talents to talk about tactics that are needed to develop our brand value and profitably grow the marketer channel of trade. I won't talk about profits or margins or controlling expenses or the need to run efficient businesses. These topics are ever current on our minds, and if you are reading this message you have managed through another year of dealing with them. So get ready because we have to do it again in 2008. I hope that you will continue to learn from each other, draw on the strengths of your existing experiences be it with personnel, profit centers, suppliers, real estate or whatever. And above all deal honestly with the weaknesses that you see in your business. More and more these weaknesses can no longer be hidden or covered by other strengths. Your only motto should be... "Be very good at what you do or let someone else do it."
